Dr. Bronner's LAVENDER Pure-Castile Soap
contains both Lavandin & Lavender essential oils to create a
soothing and harmonizing bathing experience for the body and mind. Like
long serene sunsets over still calm waters, Lavender-Castile showers
replenish and recharge the soul. Supermild Castile has outstanding
water softening and cleansing powers, preferable to harsh soap &
defattening synthetics. It does not cut dirt, but dissolves it. It is
the mildest, most pleasant soap you have ever used.
Soap is made
by saponifying a fat or oil with a strong alkali. A fat or oil is a
triglyceride, which means that three fatty acids of various carbon
lengths are attached to a glycerine backbone. The strong alkali is
either sodium (for bars) or potassium (for liquids) hydroxide. The
saponification process is a simple one-step reaction with no waste
generated: the glycerine is split off from the fatty acids, and the
fatty acids combine with the sodium or potassium to form soap, while the
hydroxide forms water. The result is soap, glycerin and water (no
alkali remains).
Quality soap-making consists in great part in
choosing the right proportions of the right oils with their different
fatty acids. Most commercial soaps skimp on quality because of cost, and
use lots of tallow from beef fat with a little bit of coconut or palm
kernel oil. Our unsurpassed soaps use olive, hemp, and palm oils instead
of tallow, and use three to four times more coconut oil than commercial
soaps. Saponified coconut oil generates high-lather cleansing even in
hard water because it has shorter-chain saturated fatty acids. Hemp,
olive, and palm based soaps make a mild, smooth, creamy lather, because
these oils contain longer chain unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty
acids.
Dr. Bronner's makes a higher quality soap in other ways
as well. Unlike most commercial soapmakers who distill the glycerin out
of their soaps to sell, we retain it in our soap for its superb
moisturizing qualities. We also superfat our soap with olive fatty acid,
which both ensures that there is no free alkali, and lowers the pH,
making a milder, smoother lather. We use rosemary extract and
plant-derived vitamin antioxidants to protect freshness (the rosemary is
effective at 0.005%, so it contributes absolutely no scent). We do not
add any chelating agents, dyes, whiteners, or synthetic fragrances.
We
use only 100% pure high quality essential oils. Our liquid soaps are so
concentrated that they are only a few percent away from being a solid,
which ecologically saves on packaging materials. They are a superb
value, costing less than less-concentrated inferior detergent body-wash
"liquid soaps." Our soaps are most popular for at-home washing, but they
also are the choice when camping and hiking, as our soaps are so
biodegradable and nature-friendly. Dr. Bronner's soaps have spread by
quality and word of mouth alone into virtually every health food store
in the country. Unsolicited articles raving about our soaps have
appeared in magazines and newspapers as diverse as Natural Health,
Outdoor Gear, Vogue, The Washington Post, The Chicago Tribune, The
Associated Press, The Wall Street Journal, Parenting and New Age.

100% Cruelty Free. No animal testing. 100% Vegan. No synthetic lavender oils.
